Never used 'em. They look like they're just a larger flare than the OEM ones though. Kinds like getting smooth BW's. This isn't fab though. Needs to go to chat.

They look pretty nice, but are really expensive. Id still rather have bushwackers though.

Ya I like everything about them but the price. I like how they still look somewhat stock only bigger.. Hate the price... Does Bushwhacker have any that look similar?

No Bushwacker only has 2 styles, flat flares and cut-out flares.

Personally I like their Cut-Out flares.

I would call them. They had a big company split and I have not heard anything further on what is happening with their product line in the past year....

I emailed the manufacturer today to see if I could just purchase the rear flares for my 4 door. They got back to me within an hour or so...

The Go Beserk look really good. I Like them! Anyway, check out these XJ flares. They look like BW, less bulky & cost less. There's a pretty long thread over on NAXJA about these.

Those look good but I prefer a more stock looking flare with a bigger opening for the tire.

Yep, but I think I'm going to go with a set of Hannemann fiberglass fenders in the front and the Iceland's in the back. Should be lots of clearance...

There's several of those out there, including (IMO) TJ flares. At least those are a genuine Jeep part. I can't post links not 'cause I'm at work, but I'll try to remember when I'm home.
